Article of manufacture for keeping a persons body cool

ABSTRACT

An article of manufacture for keeping a persons body cool. This cap has ribs to hold ice, this ice will melt with the athletes body temperature letting cool water run down onto their body, the stretchable material holds the ice snug in place. Ribs run front to back and sewn into a side by side pattern. The fabric will let the melting ice water through the top, side, bottom and back. This cap will have a snap at the end of each individual rib to hold the ice in each row. Cap will be made of a breathable material like cloth, and visor will catch some of the water from the melting ice. This will let an athlete wring it out over their body to cool themself down even more.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates generally to the field of athletes, and moreparticularly to an article of manufacture for keeping a persons bodycool.

When I would run alot of races in upstate N.Y. and on the days that Itrained I would put ice under my cap and let it run down on me to keepme cool on hot days.

Even on ten mile runs I would still have ice under my hat when I gotback from my work out.

There are no current ways to keep an athlete cool. They can grab abottle of water off a table in a race and put it on them self. Thiswould slow their race time down. They could carry a water bottle withthem and that hard to run with.

No caps have ice and the people wear regular cap are holding the heatin. There are no caps for athletes that will cool them down but thisone.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Detailed descriptions of the preferred embodiment are provided herein.It is to be understood, however, that the present invention may beembodied in various forms. Therefore, specific details disclosed hereinare not to be interpreted as limiting, but rather as a basis for theclaims and as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the artto employ the present invention in virtually any appropriately detailedsystem, structure or manner.

This invention relates generally to athletes. This apparatus is to beworn on the head. It is made of a breathable material. Two layers of thematerial are placed on top of each other and sewn into rows evenlyspaced. Then a visor is attached on the ends of one end of the ribs andseals them permanently. On the other end of the ribs each one will openand close. Placing an adjustable strap on the back will allow it to fitany size head. After the cap fits you then place ice in between eachlayer making a rib. With each rib running front to back most of thewater will fall on the persons back and in the front the absorbing visorwill catch it. As the cool water drips on to the athlete it cools theirbody. This will make them feel better when working out or in a race andmay give them a faster time.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1 is a plan view of the athlete cap.

FIG. 2 is a cross sectional view of the invention.

FIG. 3 is a cross sectional view of the invention.

Everytime a person wants to work out they just put ice from theirfreezer into each rib and close it.

Other objects and advantages of the present invention will becomeapparent from the following descriptions, taken in connection with theaccompanying drawings, wherein, by way of illustration and example, anembodiment of the present invention is disclosed.

An article of manufacture for keeping a persons body cool. Comprising:this cap has ribs to hold ice, this ice will melt with the athletes bodytemperature letting cool water run down onto their body. The stretchablematerial holds the ice snug in place, ribs run front to back and sewninto a side by side pattern. The fabric will let the melting ice waterthrough the top, side, bottom and back. This cap will have a snap at theend of each individual rib to hold the ice in each row. The cap will bemade of a breathable material like cloth, and visor will catch some ofthe water from the melting ice.

An apparatus for cooling down athletes: a cap with ribs to hold ice,closing ribs to hold ice over someones head, the ice will melt coolingthe person wearing this cap. Any amount of ice can be used.

The drawings constitute a part of this specification and includeexemplary embodiments to the invention, which may be embodied in variousforms. It is to be understood that in some instances various aspects ofthe invention may be shown exaggerated or enlarged to facilitate anunderstanding of the invention.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

In FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4 drawings show embodiments of a cap in accordancewith the present invention with cross-section, with ribs in FIGS. 1 and4 that will hold the ice in place in an expandable material.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

A cap with ice in accordance with the present invention is shown inFIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4. A stretchable or non-stretchable material shown 1Ain FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4, forms ribs by attaching them with thread 5A inFIGS. 2 and 4.

These ribs hold ice 4C and 3A of FIGS. 3 and 4 show the ice in place.

At the back end of the cap there is a snap 1C of FIGS. 2 and 3 to sealthe ice in, to stop the ice from falling out.

In the back of the cap is an adjustable strap 2C of FIG. 2 to adjust forhead size.

In the front of the cap is a visor 1B of FIGS. 1. 2 and 3. This is madeof a flexible material on the outside and an absorbable material that'shoused on the inside.
